Their keeper looked dodgy there with that Jones effort. Let’s test him.

Why was there a free kick on that corner? Looks like Adeboyejo was pushed as the ball came in, not warranting a pen, but not warranting their goal kick.

Thomason now two bookings off an additional three game ban. Good god, he needs to grow up.
He just got booked for winning the ball. It’s a nonsense.
It’s a borderline one at best, and there was no need for him to go in so hard that early in the game.
Didn't think it was going in hard. Certainly didn't look to leave a boot in on their player, just seemed a fair effort at playing the ball.

Deflected effort I think from their defender sliding in.

I look down for a second and the ball is in our net.

Shite. Their press wins again. Maybe because Thomo was trying to be brave and look forward with it.

FFS Bolton. So many opposition players in our own box and we don't put distance on it. Of course Thomason's getting pressed, he's on a yellow.

Could've had the goalkeeper kicking wide to Ogbeta.

Took a touch when there wasn’t time. But the ball straight into the midfield like that is their trigger. And we haven’t got to grips with it same as when the came here.

Remember: Barnsley almost always score, but they also almost always concede. Keep at it, whites.

George, lad. Been rattled already and he’s looking shaky. But you can’t have that much time there to set yourself. All uphill now.

The shirt-pulling is everywhere, but they’re smarter with it.

Need to just be calm and get a grip on this now. Pass the ball for a bit.

You can see the confidence is drained from our lot completely.

Right now we look like we are very naive and are being bullied. I hate that. Stand up to it and give it back.

That's the trigger for us not scoring and conceding about 4.

We've got to get a goal early on otherwise we could quite easily be seeing us getting turned over when stretching to get back into it.
